overkill - killing for a living lyrics

a sense of peace was falling on the universal night
and it gave me a pause to reason why i live
to never cease the calling of the consequential right
and it gave me cause and reason why they give
the first thing i remember was the shadow ‘cross my heart
and they matched the beauty hidden in their soul
the next was ‘cross the universe, as it came apart
and the sum of the parts became whole
stalking and hunting, profession in blood
working the night to a throne
chalking an outline, experience must
invisible, never alone
i can take you anywhere
take all that you give
i can free you from despair
killing just to live
killing for a living, living just to kill
i looked across the answers, though questions didn’t exist
and found that i was never alone
we cut away the cancer and continued to resist
but the outcome of the night remained unknown
the next thing i remember were the years across my face
and they matched only the beauty of the scars
the next was ‘cross the universe into time and sp-ce
and to know together, we’d have to go too far
bleeding a nation, casualty time
breaking the back of the core
promised salvation, a casual crime
feeding and f-cking the wh-r-
make my living on borrowed time
make the clock stand still
keep my hands ’round what is mine
living just to kill
kill to live
live to kill
kill to live
live to kill
come on
come on, now kill a little kindness
give the worst of your best
come on, now and shake a little madness
put the dead to rest
i can give you reasons, truthify to the bone
they can give you all you ever wanted
when you’re far away from home
come on now, kill a little kindness
give the worst of your best
come on now, and shake a little madness
put the dead to rest
so as the plot will thicken and time is not a friend
the blessing comes but one time in life
across the crowded universe that hastens to an end
through memories of one time in a night
and what will i remember through the by and by
to have and hold and turn about the chill
that this was not the pause to die
but to live to kill
stalking and hunting, profession in blood
working the night to a throne
chalking an outline, experience must
invisible, never alone
i can take you anywhere
killing just to live
i can free what lies in tears
living just to kill
i can take you anywhere
killing just to live
i can free what lies in tears
living just to kill
